    Description

    Soil Moist Granules - Jar ( 1 Lb )
    Reduces plant watering by 50%, transplanting shock and plant stress due to lack of available water
    Cost effective - lasts 3-5 years in the soil
    Stores over 200 times its weight in water that releases a steady supply of water as your plants need it
    Non-toxic, safe and economical to use
    Soil Moist Granules is an effective water management aid that reduces plant waterings by half, helping to save money, time, and labor.
    It is a synthetic, acrylic polymer with a potassium salt base that's guaranteed to be safe and non-toxic. Soil Moist helps lessen transplanting shock and plant stress because it absorbs and releases water in soil when necessary.
    Soil Moist will maintain vigorous plants, encourages deep root penetration, and reduces soil compaction.
    Soil Moist will last for several seasons, around 3 to 5 years in the soil, making it very cost-effective.
    Ideal to use with indoor and outdoor plantings such as flower beds, trees, shrubs, baskets, containers, vegetables and turf-grass.
    Use:
    Interior & Exterior Plantings: Trees, Shrubs, Containers, Baskets, Flower Beds, Vegetables and Turf-grass
    TECHNICAL
    The hydrophilic acrylic polymer particle size distribution has been selected to insure rapid initial uptake of water by a portion of the polymer followed by slower absorption of water by the balance of the polymer. Good initial soaking is required to insure that both the soil and the polymer absorb water to their maximum levels.
    From the initial soaking,the polymer will soften and swell as water is absorbed. The polymer captures and stores water that would normally percolate through the soil. As the potting system dries the polymer will release its water reservoir. As an added benefit the continuous expansion and contraction of the polymer prevents the soil system from crusting hard. Though the polymer is soft, it prevents soil compacting.
